SID CONFIGURATION

 

Up to 64 panels may be configured on the Panel-Link network, and each panel must have a unique SID (System Identification) number.

In general, the SID number of every device on the network should be entered into the SID list of this panel and should have "Link RX" enabled (section 11.4.2). This allows this F3200 to monitor all other devices on the network. Any device on the network which is not in the SID list of this panel will be completely ignored i.e. all messages received from it will be discarded and no messages will be sent to it.

Hence, if a panel is not in the SID list, it's information cannot be used. It may be that some panels do not have every SID programmed into their SID list. For example, a system may have multiple slave devices which all appear in the SID list of a master panel but do not appear in the SID list of each others panels.

On entry to the programming of the SID list the total number of SIDs currently in the SID list will be displayed.

There are two ways of moving through the SID list. By pressing the 'NEXT' or 'PREV' keys you can step through the list of programmed SIDs, or by using the Up/Down arrow keys to move sequentially through the SID numbers 1-254. The number of a specific SID to be programmed may also be entered by selecting option 1 from either menu 1 or menu 2.

Each SID has two configuration menus which can be scrolled through using the < or > keys.

The DELETE key can be used to delete a SID from the list. The EDIT key can be used to display a menu which has options for setting or clearing all the settings for the current SID and for turning on or off the display of a full description of each item as it is being changed. Turning the full description display off allows faster programming.

11.4.1SID MENU ONE

1. SID : (1-254)

Change the network SID number that is being viewed/modified.

2. Link RX : (Yes/No)

When enabled, the link integrity transmissions from the selected SID are monitored by this panel, and if no transmissions are received for a programmed length of time (section 11.3.3 Link RX time) a system fault is generated. Link RX should be enabled in this panel for all SIDs that this panel needs to receive information from or wishes to monitor the presence of.

3. Log events : (Yes/No)

If yes, events received from the selected SID are logged to the local history queue and also to the local printer but will only be printed on the printer if event printing is enabled. Only certain types of events will be logged to the history and printer according to the programming of event type selections described in section 6.4.4.

4. RX FFCIF : (Yes/No)

If enabled, FFCIF Alarms received from the selected SID will be placed into the local FFCIF alarm list providing that the two panels have at least one common group. The remote SID must also be programmed to send FFCIF alarms. FFCIF alarms received from remote network panels do not get sent to local RZDUs - local RZDUs receive only alarms for zones local to this panel.
